JJ. Tarkovsky is one of the greatest filmmakers of all time. Absolutely essential. enjoy discovering.

Solaris (with Clooney) was a pretty OK remake of the Tarkovsky version. Stalker is the other famous sci-fi film by Tarkovsky. Both are based on sci-fi stories by the Strugatsky brothers and both will warp your brain.

I think the one with clooney was in some cases closer to what was in the novel, but in other aspects not as much. The book was more involved than either one. I love the soundtrack to the newer one.
